About this route

Cluj-Napoca – Arieșeni Transfer

We provide private taxi transfer services on the Cluj-Napoca – Arieșeni route. The total distance is about 130 km, and the estimated travel time is 2h 15min – 2h 45min in normal traffic conditions.

The road from Cluj-Napoca to Arieșeni

The roughly 130 km take 2h 15min – 2h 45min, via Turda → Buru → the Arieș Valley (DN75) through Baia de Arieș and Câmpeni, up to Arieșeni and the Vârtop pass. The road climbs the whole length of the Arieș valley, through some of the most beautiful scenery in the Apuseni Mountains — but it's a mountain road with low average speeds; the modest mileage is deceptive.

What you'll find at Arieșeni and Vârtop

  • The Vârtop ski slope — one of the best in the Apuseni, with natural snow that lasts late into the season
  • Scărișoara Cave — an underground glacier, 30 minutes from Arieșeni via Gârda de Sus
  • Vârciorog Waterfall and Groapa Ruginoasa — hiking landmarks within easy reach of the resort
  • Mountain guesthouses — the Arieșeni-Vârtop area is full of chalets; a popular destination for New Year's Eve and the winter holidays

Tips for the Cluj – Arieșeni transfer

  • In winter: the DN75 is maintained, but the Vârtop pass demands caution in snowfall; our drivers know the road — you travel relaxed whatever the weather
  • Stop at Scărișoara: for a visit to the ice cave, we can extend the transfer with a stop — just say so when booking
  • New Year and school holidays: book a week ahead — it's the period of highest demand on this route
  • Combining with Câmpeni/Albac: we can drop off or pick up passengers along the way at no significant extra cost

For longer stays, arrange the return trip from the start — there are no local taxis available on the spot in the area.

  • Vârtop ski slope in winter, the Apuseni Mountains in summer
